The great Fire
The Great Fire of London of September 1666 was one of the moost famous incidents in Stuart
England. It was the second tragedy to hit the city in the space of 12 months. The fire started in
Pudding Lane. The fire started in a baker's shop owned by Thomas Farriner who was the
king's baker. His maid failed to put out the ovens at the end of the night. Once it started, the fire
spread quickly. The city was basically made out of wood and with September following on from
the summer, the city was very dry. Strong winds fanned the flames.
